Conservatives deal with facts and reach conclusions; liberals have conclusions and sell them as facts.
Are you wondering what an Obama court will look like? You don’t need to look very far. If you haven’t yet read Christina Hoff Sommers’ wonderful 1995 book, Who Stole Feminism?: How Women Have Betrayed Women, run out right now and get a copy. Generally speaking, the book is about
Continue readingTo my regular crew: Don’t get too excited. I’m told that Rush didn’t do an extensive analysis of my article at American Thinker. But he did allude to it, and it’s definitely spiked the number of people who have come over to check things out. Okay, back to my welcome
Continue readingAs you may recall, yesterday I said that Dealergate, if true, had the potential to be the most damaging scandal of all, because it shows, not politics as usual (corrupt, but distant), but the White House gunning directly for specifically identified little guys. There is a slow accretion of evidence
Continue readingThe applause from Sotomayor on the Left is, you’ll pardon me for saying, canned. They know Sotomayor is not a solid judicial candidate, so they’re focusing on the usual race and sex packaging. The excitement isn’t there. This is rote identity politics. A good example is Ruth Marcus’s column applauding
Continue readingI’ve noticed a disturbing tendency in myself to delay posting Weasel results in direct proportion to how badly I did. I don’t do this on purpose — that is, I don’t say “I did badly, so I’m just going to ignore this for a while.” What I do is the
Continue readingClearly, predator nations smell blood in the water — and that blood is Obama’s manifest inability to cope with predator nations. At least, that’s how I read this, from BNO News at 9:30 ish p.m. PST: N. Korea says it is no longer bound to the armistice which ended the
Continue readingWhether it’s the pictures or the story itself, I found this disturbing at so many levels. This person, both visually and behaviorally, seems to have left ordinary humanity far behind, and I don’t mean that in a good way. In the old days, kind hearts would have said “she’s more
Continue readingLots of good stuff out there, so I offer this for your consideration: Bret Stephens explains how Obama’s approach to, well, just about everything seems to derive from the a South Park episode involving some gnomes who had a goal, but were a little unclear on how to achieve it.
Continue readingI can’t get hold of the California Supreme Court website, which is overloaded, but BNO News has this headline: BULLETIN — CALIFORNIA SUPREME COURT DECLARES 18,000 EXISTING SAME-SEX MARRIAGES VALID BUT UPHOLDS PROPOSITION 8. In other words, the Court performed as predicted, based upon hints at oral argument. It’s very
Continue readingI keep seeing headlines all over the place to the effect that Republican Senators will be afraid to vote against the first proposed Hispanic justice. This may certainly be true for Senators, who are a weaselly, unprincipled bunch, I suspect, though, that for many voters Obama himself is causing the
Continue readingPolitical scandals always have a theatrical quality to them: They involve politicians, on the one hand, and insanely rich people or powerful organizations, on the other hand. They’re not about ordinary people like you and me. So, while we’re disgusted by the scandals, and draw negative conclusions about the players
Continue readingThomas Lifson finds amusing my reports of conversations with the liberals surrounding me. He therefore suggested I write an article on the subject, which I did, and which he was kind enough to run today. The following is my article, courtesy of American Thinker: ********************** Many of us have friends,
Continue readingOn Memorial Day, I can only say “thank you” to all those have given their lives for this country. Matt, at Blackfive, fleshes out what that really means. UPDATE: Two things. First, Flopping Aces has a wonderful Memorial Day video that I know you’ll want to see. Second, we went
Continue readingAfter years of Muslims marching through British streets, demanding the imposition of Sharia law, and cheering the death of British troops, British people in the town of Luton had enough, and organized their own march. Interestingly first reports are that (a) there’s no claim that the BNP was behind this
Continue readingI few hours ago, I read the Twitters on “peculiar earthquakes” in the Korean Peninsula. Now I know why they were peculiar: the North Koreans are testing nukes. Oh, joy. I hope the White House’s “grave[] concern” translates into intelligent action.
